If you haven’t seen BoJack horseman, it’s a guy that knows he’s a bad person and he suffers because of it. That’s the whole series.
The thing is, I was certain it would take more time than this. I thought the election would be close enough for him to contest it, and that the Supreme Court would end up deciding the election 6-3. Instead the presidency was just…handed to him directly.
I figured the outcome of this election would be one of three things:
- Harris wins decisively
- Harris wins by the skin of her teeth after a couple weeks of recounts and lawsuits
- Trump wins by the skin of his teeth after a couple weeks of recounts and lawsuits, and maybe a riot
I didn’t really consider the fourth option because Trump’s never won the popular vote before and it seemed like there was more excitement for Harris than Biden, at least up until the last month. So I’m actually blindsided by the fact that it turned out to be:
- Trump wins decisively
He didn’t do any better than he ever has, it’s just that nobody showed up for Harris.
Edit: plus the fact that the R’s seem to have every branch of government. This really couldn’t have gone much worse
This more or less captures the spirit of the last 100 days, yup. Maybe I should watch some Bojack, it’s certainly more lighthearted than this political season has been. Ugh
I thought we had it when he said they were eating cats and dogs.
I thought we had it when he said they were eating cats and dogs.
I thought we had it when so many Republican insiders were worried, when even the Toupee himself was losing sleep over the possibility of losing. I hoped they knew something we didn’t.
Turns out they’re even incompetent at worrying.
I made the mistake of thinking we had it when we heard him say he can grab them by the pussy so this one didn’t get me.
As a European I thought there is no way Americans are stupid enough to reelect someone who openly supported overthrowing the government the past time.
Had I said it out loud I would have known trump would get reelected, because americans are that stupid.
As a European, we shouldn’t be so quick to judge, we are only a few years behind them, and who is the greater fool, the fool or the one who follows the fool?
Same… As soon as the polls were showing how close it was I knew we were going to lose all of the swing states… We never learned our lesson over the last 10 years… Every poll Trump is involved in the polls underestimate him by a lot… +1 Harris, +3 Harris, whatever, is really +4 Trump.
